Quavo, Ty Dolla $ign, and ARE WE DREAMING (Composer – Brian Tyler) – roll out the official music video for their resilient anthem, “If I Fall,” for Paramount Animation and Hasbro Entertainment’s upcoming motion picture TRANSFORMERS ONE.

Directed by Brian Tyler (ARE WE DREAMING) and DJ Furth, the epic video for “If I Fall” features a dynamic visual aesthetic with red and blue laser themes that reflect the intense juxtaposition between Optimus Prime and Megatron. Quavo, Ty Dolla $ign, and ARE WE DREAMING (chorus vocals) build up the tension as they passionately deliver their verses while clips from TRANSFORMERS ONE are shown on the background screens and integrated throughout the video, serving as a backdrop to the impending fallout between the two characters. Complete with drum solos from ARE WE DREAMING, the visual perfectly encapsulates the emotional weight and energy of the track.

About the video, Tyler said, “It was so dope getting to work with legends Quavo and Ty Dolla who both killed it in the video for “If I Fall”, which has a sick sci-fi feel that brings you into the world of Transformers. The sets were epic, it felt like we were on Cybertron.”

Tyler also edited the video alongside Elizabeth Saltzman. “It’s kind of crazy directing your own music video when you are also singing on it, playing the drums, editing the cut, and creating the visual effects. Being so integrated in the entire process has been insane but amazing,” Tyler gushed. “This video is actually the first of its kind for my upcoming audio-visual project Are We Dreaming, which I direct and create all the visuals for, as well as produce the music which spans many genres but is primarily centered around bass music and hip hop. So hype for the world to see what we’ve cooked up!”

Quavo, Ty Dolla $ign, and ARE WE DREAMING (Composer – Brian Tyler) join forces on their new collaborative anthem, “If I Fall,” for Paramount Animation and Hasbro Entertainment’s upcoming motion picture TRANSFORMERS ONE. The three superstars build off one another’s resilient verses, vowing to “take no prisoners” and refusing to give up when the odds are stacked against them. “It’s in my bloodline; I have too much pride,” declares Quavo on the track.

Set to release September 20th, TRANSFORMERS ONE features a star-studded voice cast, including Chris Hemsworth, Brian Tyree Henry, Scarlett Johansson, Keegan-Michael Key, Steve Buscemi, with Laurence Fishburne, and Jon Hamm. Debuting as the first-ever fully CG-animated Transformers movie, TRANSFORMERS ONE is the untold origin story of Optimus Prime and Megatron, better known as sworn enemies, but once were friends bonded like brothers who changed the fate of Cybertron forever.

“I started writing the song “If I Fall” as a personal way to both express my gratitude to those who truly lifted me up when I fell down in life and a rebuke of those who turned away,” says composer Brian Tyler. “This concept is the core story of TRANSFORMERS ONE, so it’s a synergistic song. I was blessed to have both Quavo and Ty Dolla $ign contribute their incredible vocals to the track – it turned out so dope!”

It appears that the day following the news of the untimely passing of ATL rap legend Rich Homie Quan, surviving Migos members Offset and Quavo have put their differences to the side with Quavo taking the first step in burying the hatchet.

Quavo posted a tribute to his late colleague Rich Homie Quan, who passed away yesterday from an apparent drug overdose at age 34. In his tribute, the Migos member posted the song “Nothing Changed” featuring Takeoff in his Instagram stories and tagged Offset to make it clear that nothing has really changed between the two. He even added in the text, “Good Convo With My Bro” with links and prayer hands.

Fans were obviously happy about the good news, with some mentioning that the Migos’ surviving members shouldn’t have waited for a death to bring them back together.

“They should have did this before Rich Homie died,” one user wrote.

Another summed up what many were feeling, posting, “We need y’all. We done already lost too much of our childhood.”

Quavo is standing ten toes down in Drake being his friend. Drake’s career has flooded the Internet with an opening of his archives via 100 Gigs. Quavo shared an old clip of The Boy with Migos and wrote, “@champagnepapi Never forget what we did gang!!! Migo gang 4L. Drake SInatra.”

Drake recently dropped new music. Three new tracks—”Circadian Rhythm,” “SOD,” and “No Face” featuring Playboi Carti all “leaked” through @plottttwistttttt, his finsta IG account.

Let’s get right to it. 

”SOD” might be familiar to fans as it was previously known as “Supersoak,” a track that streamer Kai Cenat debuted last month. Get this: initially, it featured a verse from Lil Yachty, but after clearance issues over the sample with Mr. HotSpot. Yachty’s verse was removed for the official release. Interesting.

The “Circadian Rhythm” track is sparking speculation due to its possible connection to Kendrick Lamar’s diss track “6:16 in LA.” Some listeners believe the song’s title references a line from Lamar’s track, where he raps about “circadian rhythms of a shooting star,” hinting at a potential response from Drake in the ongoing tension between the two artists. Who knows. We’ll see if Dot responds or thinks he even needs to.

In “No Face,” Drake aims at his critics, rapping, “I’m just so happy that n—s who envied and held that shit in got to finally show it / I’m over the moon, yeah, we’ll see you boys soon.” Sounds about right. 

ICYMI, these new releases follow Drake’s recent drop on 100gigs.org, where he shared a massive collection of unreleased music, behind-the-scenes footage, tour set designs, and studio clips. Among the previous releases were tracks like “It’s Up” featuring Young Thug and 21 Savage, “Blue Green Red,” and “Housekeeping Knows” featuring Latto, which also made their initial debut on his Instagram burner before being officially released on streaming platforms.

Following the success of his recent Hot 100 hit “Tough” with Lana Del Rey, GRAMMY nominated artist Quavo (Quality Control Music/Motown Records) is back with another impressive release, “FLY.” This single offers a fresh take on Lenny Kravitz’s classic 1998 track, enhanced by Quavo’s distinctive style and melody. Quavo’s lyrics, “Flyest in the room, who Flyer than you? / Flyest in the room, you just past the moon?” are complemented by Kravitz’s newly recorded vocals, bringing a renewed energy to the song.

The accompanying video, directed by Jake Nava, showcases Quavo and Kravitz as a dynamic duo, delivering a captivating performance. Their synergy is palpable, creating an electrifying atmosphere that translates through both the music and visuals. Quavo and Kravitz’s collaboration follows their connection earlier this year when Quavo honored Kravitz at the BMC dinner. Kravitz, a celebrated rockstar, continues to make waves in the industry with his latest album, *Blue Electric Light*, released earlier this year.

Earlier this month, Quavo released “Tough,” a pop-infused track with Lana Del Rey. The song, which explores new musical territories for both artists, has been well-received by major outlets like Rolling Stone, Complex, and Billboard. Currently, “Tough” is holding strong at No. 61 on the Billboard Hot 100. Quavo also made headlines in Atlanta recently when he appeared alongside Vice President Harris at a rally, supporting her stance on gun control and endorsing her run for the presidency. Quavo’s new white cognac, White X, created in partnership with Sazerac, makes a cameo in the video upon the brand’s nationwide launch. Quavo’s latest foray into the spirits industry is just another step for him to become one of music’s preeminent entrepreneurs.

Vice President Harris had Quavo and Megan Thee Stallion at her Atlanta campaign rally. After Quavo spoke, VP Harris called out her opponent, former president Donald Trump.

“Donald Trump, on the other hand, has talked a big game about securing our border, but he does not walk the walk,” Harris said. “Or as my friend Quavo would say, he does not ‘walk it like he talks it.'”

At her Atlanta campaign rally, Quavo was on hand for Vice President Kamala Harris. During his time on stage, Quavo revealed Vice President Harris “stands on business,” and he works alongside her because she is working on gun violence.

“You can’t understand the struggles of gun violence if you’re not in the field or in the heart of it,” Quavo said. “One thing I learned about working with Vice President Harris is she’s always standing on business.”

Quavo would sign off with a salute to the late Takeoff, mimicking his voice to give a shoutout to Kamala Harris. You can see his entire speech below.

After amassing a staggering 40 million views on Instagram reels with a tantalizing teaser, GRAMMY-nominated artists Quavo and Lana Del Rey release their highly-anticipated new song “Tough” today via Capitol/Interscope/Polydor. Directed by Wyatt Spain Winfrey, the video for ‘Tough’ is a mesmerizing fusion that allows both superstars to fearlessly explore each other’s musical realms, showcasing their indomitable spirit. Set in a rural backdrop, Quavo and Lana are intrepid companions, undaunted by life’s trials. On one end, Quavo brandishes his shotgun while Lana carries her guitar, symbolizing their unwavering strength despite their contrasting origins. 

“Tough like the scuff on a pair of old leather boots/Like the blue-collar, red-dirt attitude/Like a .38 made out of brass/Tough like the stuff on your grandpa’s glass,” the country-trap hook goes. 

Following the release of the teaser of “Tough,” the clip enjoyed various viral moments and was picked up by numerous publications, including Billboard, Rolling Stone, Spin, Hypebeast, and more. Quavo and Lana added more fuel to the conversation when they performed the song together at the singer’s headlining performance at Fenway Park in Boston. The teased reel posted on Instagram became the most viewed reel of all time for Quavo, while that became the second largest for Lana.

Sazerac, one of the world’s largest distilled spirits companies, has partnered with Grammy-nominated artist and entrepreneur Quavo to introduce White X Cognac, now available nationwide following a sold-out pre-release launch on BlockBar in February and a selective spring rollout. This fresh, bright, and modern cognac is one of the first of its kind available in the United States, offering a new era of luxury for cognac lovers.

Quavo, known for his dynamic style and entrepreneurial spirit, expressed his enthusiasm for White X Cognac: “What I love about White X Cognac is that it’s an entirely different drink experience than any other type of cognac. This spirit is for those who aren’t afraid to shake things up, put in the work, and celebrate their accomplishments. This is the drink they’ve been waiting for. Neat or in a cocktail, White X Cognac is smooth and sippable – a reward for the hustle.”Traditionally, this style of cognac has not been publicly available in the United States, limiting access for loyal fans. White X Cognac aims to transform the category with its smoother, sweeter, and more mixable profile. Sazerac Vice President Jess Scheerhorn noted, “White X Cognac challenges the traditional category with its fresh and light taste – it’s a total departure from many preconceived perceptions about cognac overall. Quavo’s electrifying style and willingness to break down barriers make him the perfect fit to help us debut this brand.”The first 100 bottles sold out in less than an hour on BlockBar in February 2024. Now, White X Cognac is widely available in clubs, bars, restaurants, and retail stores nationwide at a suggested retail price of $59.99 for a 750ml bottle.For more information, follow White X on Instagram at @WhiteXCognac and visit whitexcognac.com.

In a night that epitomized luxury and sophistication, Grammy-nominated artist and entrepreneur Quavo joined forces with White X Cognac to host an exclusive private dinner at the illustrious Carbone in New York City on June 6, 2024. The event celebrated the national release of White X Cognac, a light and fruity cognac that promises a unique drinking experience unlike any other on the market.

Held at Carbone, located at 181 Thompson St, New York, NY, the event was a masterclass in elegance and culinary excellence. Guests were treated to a guided tasting of White X Cognac, featuring custom cocktails that highlighted the spirit’s versatility. The cocktail hour was followed by a specially curated dinner by renowned Chef Mario Carbone, which included an array of exquisite dishes such as halibut, veal, oysters, and tuna tartare.

Quavo entertained the attendees throughout the evening, sharing personal anecdotes and insights into his favorite way to enjoy White X Cognac — neat. His songs played in the background, setting a vibrant and celebratory atmosphere for the night.

The Launch of White X Cognac

White X Cognac, introduced by Quavo in collaboration with leading spirits company Sazerac, offers a smoother and more mixable cognac experience. After a sold-out pre-release launch on BlockBar in February and a selective roll-out in the spring, White X Cognac is now available nationwide. This new-to-world cognac aims to challenge the status quo and redefine the category for spirits enthusiasts.

“What I love about White X Cognac is that it’s an entirely different drink experience than any other type of cognac,” said Quavo. “This spirit is for those who aren’t afraid to shake things up, put in the work, and celebrate their accomplishments. This is the drink they’ve been waiting for. Neat or in a cocktail, White X Cognac is smooth and sippable – a reward for the hustle.”

Redefining Cognac

White X Cognac’s innovative approach brings a fresh, bright, and modern perspective to the traditional cognac category. Sazerac’s Vice President, Jess Scheerhorn, emphasized the spirit’s unique qualities: “White X Cognac challenges the traditional category with its fresh and light taste – it’s a total departure from many pre-conceived perceptions about cognac overall. Quavo’s electrifying style and willingness to break down barriers makes him the perfect fit to help us debut this brand.”

White X Cognac is clear and golden straw in color, offering the delicacy of a youthful cognac with rich flavors that linger. It is fresh and light on the nose with a slight sweetness, featuring intense notes of white and yellow peaches, elegant vanilla, and an undertone of dried rose petals. The palate opens with gentle white stone fruit, creamy and soft vanilla, and a subtle hint of tannin devoid of bitterness. The finish is meltingly smooth, elegant, and extremely long for a younger cognac.

Quavo and White X Cognac’s private dinner at Carbone NYC was more than just an event; it was a celebration of innovation, luxury, and the breaking of traditional barriers. As White X Cognac continues to make waves in the spirits industry, it promises to offer cognac lovers a fresh and sophisticated drinking experience.

Quavo is making waves in Hollywood, with producer turned director Randall Emmett praising his acting chops in the upcoming film Cash Out, co-starring John Travolta. Yes, Pulp Fiction, Face-Off, John Travolta. That guy.

Randall Emmett, the director of Cash Out, spoke to TMZ Hip Hop at LAX, expressing his admiration for Quavo’s performance in the action-packed film. Now, if you don’t know, some say Emmett inspired the iconic Turtle character in “Entourage” back when he was Mark Wahlberg’s assistant back in the day. He’s since risen into a powerhouse movie producer, now director, yet not without controversy. Emmett was also a fixture on the reality TV hit series “Vanderpump Rules” on Bravo TV due to his past relationship with his former fiancé and mother to one of his kids, La La Kent. 

Back to Quavo … According to Emmett, the former Migos frontman effortlessly shines on screen, showcasing a natural talent that could propel him into a successful acting career. Emmett highlighted the chemistry between John Travolta and Quavo on set, noting how their dynamic elevated the film’s overall quality. Despite Quavo’s burgeoning acting career, Emmett remained unaware of controversies surrounding the rapper, such as his feud with Chris Brown.

With Quavo’s undeniable talent and potential, it seems Hollywood has found another rising star in the world of rap-turned-acting.

Late Friday night (April 19), Chris Brown dropped off “Weakest Link,” which featured a voicemail from Quavo, Brown claiming to have sex with Saweetie while she dated Quavo and a wild Takeoff line.

In the opening voicemail, Chris Brown can be heard saying: “Now we can settle this like you got some class or we can get into some gangsta shit.” In response, Quavo said, “I don’t want no issues, I don’t want no smoke, I don’t wanna fight you.”

After a chant of “Who want smoke with me?” and calling Quavo “a bitch with dreads,” Chris Brown claims he had sex with Saweetie while she was dating Quavo.

“What’s all that boss shit you talkin’? You ain’t no huncho, nigga
You the weakest link outta yo’ clique, let’s keep it a hundo, nigga
You fucked my ex-ho, that’s cool, I don’t give no fuck, lil nigga
‘Cause I fucked yo’ ex when you were still with her, bitch, I’m up, lil nigga
They say revenge is sweet, now think about that shit
Don’t let that line go over your head, I might just sing about that shit
I had her fiending ’bout that dick, there’s something sweet about that shit
I got some tea up out that bitch, but I ain’t go speak about that shit”

Following that set, Breezy claims Quavo beat Saweetie in the elevator and that he wanted to beat the Migo at Fashion Week but wouldn’t mess up his money. Then the diss hits another level:

“You know it’s on, put you to bed, night, night, that’s Sudafed
Show me that I’m tender, bitch, time to prove what you just said
R.I.P. Takeoff, he the only real one, I got true respect
Crazy how when he died, everybody really wished it was you instead
You trippin’, Chris, don’t say that, don’t lose your head”

And now we go to the Saweetie reaction:

WHEW ! CHILE.

The back and forth on wax between R&B crooner Chris Brown and Migos member Quavo has taken another unexpected turn with another involved party; Quavo’s ex-girlfriend and Brown’s former fling Saweetie.

The “My Type” rapper took to X(formerly Twitter) after her former beau dropped his “H*es & Bitches” diss response aimed at Brown. In the song, Quavo rapped, “I can take a model bitch and make a Saweetie, n-gga,” insinuating that he turned her into the successful artist she is today.

Saweetie hit back by posting a screenshot of an unopened DM from Quavo, but the preview of the message reads, “Damn. We used to mean af to each…” Saweetie cynically captioned the screenshot, “Hopefully the model he turns into me replies.”

Brown used the failed relationship between the two in his weaponized bars against the “Bad And Boujee” rapper, claiming to have slept with her while Quavo was still with her.

“You fucked my ex-ho, that’s cool, I don’t give no fuck, lil n-gga/ ‘Cause I fucked yo’ ex when you were still with her, bitch, I’m up, lil n-gga,” CB rapped.

Saweetie and Quavo began dating back in 2018 but the couple called it quits in 2021 over allegations he cheated on her.

The post Quavo Responds to Chris Brown with New Song “Over Ho*s & B**ches” appeared first on The Source.

In an unexpected fashion that seemed harder than most rappers’ recent diss tracks, Chris Brown dropped a scathing diss track aimed at Migos frontman Quavo entitled “Weakest Link.” Now, the number one online antagonizer is pressuring Quavo to return fire at Breezy, or he can count this battle as a loss.

50 Cent seemed to give CB his props for the Weakest Link, posting the song’s cover art, which shows Quavo chomping on a glizzy, along with a snippet of the song.

“Oh my God i just heard this, if Quavo don’t come with some heat it’s a wrap. First the Fatboys break up now this!” he wrote.

Released on Friday (April 19), “Weakest Link” finds Chris Brown taking his feud with the former Migos member to another level.

Breezy addressed Quavo allegedly sleeping with Brown’s ex, Karreuche Tran, rapping, “You fucked my ex-ho, that’s cool, I don’t give no fuck, lil n-gga/ ‘Cause I fucked yo ex when you were still with her, bitch, I’m up, lil n-gga.”

Brown also takes a stab using the death of Quavo’s late nephew and Migos member TakeOff for some vicious get back. “R.I.P. TakeOff, he the only real one, I got true respect/ Crazy how when he died, everybody really wished it was you instead.”

Previously, Quavo had taken shots at Breezy on his song “Tender”, taunting him over his ex Karrueche Tran, history of violence against women and alleged drug habit. “You did the bitch wrong and now the bitch gone, she posted with a thug/ Call the bitch phone, she won’t come home, don’t beat her up/ It must be the drugs, need to cross out your plug,” rapped Quavo.

The beef between these two date all the way back to 2017, where the Brown and Quavo allegedly got into a physical altercation at the BET Awards Afterparty.

The Chris Brown and Quavo beef has hit a new level. Late Friday night, Chris Brown dropped off “Weakest Link,” which featured a voicemail from Quavo, Brown claiming to have sex with Saweetie while she dated Quavo and a wild Takeoff line.

In the opening voicemail, Chris Brown can be heard saying: “Now we can settle this like you got some class or we can get into some gangsta shit.” In response, Quavo said, “I don’t want no issues, I don’t want no smoke, I don’t wanna fight you.”

After a chant of “Who want smoke with me?” and calling Quavo “a bitch with dreads,” Chris Brown claims he had sex with Saweetie while she was dating Quavo.

“What’s all that boss shit you talkin’? You ain’t no huncho, nigga
You the weakest link outta yo’ clique, let’s keep it a hundo, nigga
You fucked my ex-ho, that’s cool, I don’t give no fuck, lil nigga
‘Cause I fucked yo’ ex when you were still with her, bitch, I’m up, lil nigga
They say revenge is sweet, now think about that shit
Don’t let that line go over your head, I might just sing about that shit
I had her fiending ’bout that dick, there’s something sweet about that shit
I got some tea up out that bitch, but I ain’t go speak about that shit”

Following that set, Breezy claims Quavo beat Saweetie in the elevator and that he wanted to beat the Migo at Fashion Week but wouldn’t mess up his money. Then the diss hits another level:

“You know it’s on, put you to bed, night, night, that’s Sudafed
Show me that I’m tender, bitch, time to prove what you just said
R.I.P. Takeoff, he the only real one, I got true respect
Crazy how when he died, everybody really wished it was you instead
You trippin’, Chris, don’t say that, don’t lose your head”

And now we go to the Saweetie reaction:

WHEW ! CHILE.

In case you missed it, the two long have had beef. But it was fresh on the minds of the industry after the two were seated next to each other at the Rhude Fashion Show in Paris. Fans wondered if that meant the two were on the same page. Brown clarified they were not: “Can’t pick who u sit by.”

He added, “F–k all that growth sht. N–ia not finna fumble my bag for little ni–as.”

The root of their beef is Quavo, who once dated Brown’s ex Karrueche Tran in 2017.

In the wake of tragedy, Migos rapper Quavo is stepping up to address the issue of gun violence with the launch of a new charity aimed at making a difference in his community. The initiative comes two years after the devastating loss of his fellow Migos member, Takeoff, who was shot and killed during a dice game in Houston.

The incident, which occurred at a gathering hosted by Rap-A-Lot Records CEO Jas Prince, shook the music industry and left Quavo and his fans mourning the loss of a talented artist and friend. Now, Quavo is turning his grief into action by launching the SPARK Grants program through his foundation, The Rocket Foundation, with the goal of reducing gun violence in Atlanta.

According to a report by People magazine, Quavo, 32, is committing $100,000 to the gun prevention program, which will focus on fostering community resilience and supporting organizations working to combat violence in the Atlanta Metropolitan Area. The SPARK Grants program will distribute $10,000 grants to ten non-profit organizations dedicated to violence reduction efforts.

In a press release announcing the initiative, Quavo expressed his commitment to creating positive change and making Atlanta a safer place for its residents. By partnering with local organizations, The Rocket Foundation aims to collaborate on initiatives that will have a tangible impact on the community and help prevent future tragedies.

The launch of the SPARK Grants program reflects Quavo’s dedication to using his platform for good and addressing pressing social issues. As a prominent figure in the music industry, he recognizes the importance of leveraging his influence to advocate for meaningful change and support initiatives that promote peace and safety.

While the loss of Takeoff continues to weigh heavily on Quavo and the Migos community, the launch of this gun violence prevention charity serves as a powerful testament to their commitment to honoring his memory and preventing similar tragedies from occurring in the future.

As Quavo and The Rocket Foundation embark on this important endeavor, they hope to inspire others to join the fight against gun violence and work towards creating safer communities for all.

Quavo has unveiled his first track of the year titled “HIMOTHY.” With his signature swagger, Quavo navigates the track’s orchestral melody and booming 808 bass, showcasing why he’s regarded as one of the most dynamic artists in the rap game.

Teasing fans earlier in the week on Instagram, Quavo hinted at the impending release of new music, culminating in the drop of “HIMOTHY.” This follows a stellar 2023 for the QC megastar, which saw the release of his highly acclaimed second solo studio album, Rocket Power, in August.

Grammy-nominated artist and entrepreneur Quavo, in collaboration with global spirits company Sazerac, unveils White X Cognac, a fresh and modern addition to the cognac scene.

White X is set to become one of the first and only white cognacs available in the United States, aiming to redefine the category and make the spirit accessible to a broader audience. The initial release of 100 bottles will be exclusively offered through online retailer BlockBar starting on February 7 at 10 AM EST, each priced at $60 and presented in a limited-edition box.

“What I love about White X is that it’s an entirely different drink experience than any other type of cognac,” said Quavo. “I’m a big believer in challenging the status quo, and I think that’s the role of white cognac. White X is for those who aren’t afraid to shake things up, put in the work and celebrate their accomplishments. This is the drink they’ve been waiting for. Neat or in a cocktail, White X is smooth and sippable – a reward for the hustle.” 

White X, with its clear and golden straw color, promises a smooth and sweet experience with rich flavors. It features delicate yet lingering notes of white and yellow peaches, elegant vanilla, and a hint of dried rose petals. The palate offers gentle white stone fruit, creamy vanilla, and subtle tannins without bitterness, culminating in a smooth and long finish.

“White X challenges the traditional cognac category with its fresh and light taste – it’s a total departure from many pre-conceived perceptions about cognac overall,” said Global Cognac Brand Director at Sazerac, Jess Scheerhorn. “Quavo’s electrifying style and willingness to break down barriers makes him the perfect fit to help us debut this brand.”

Following the BlockBar sale, White X takeovers will commence in Atlanta, with subsequent launches in Miami, Los Angeles, New York City, and Dallas, before a nationwide release in June 2024. For more details, follow @WhiteXCognac on Instagram and visit whitexcognac.com.

The last thing we expected this year was a breakup between Cardi B and Offset. The two were happily married and have done extensive interviews on their shared partnership, along with two beautiful children. 

However, all good things come to an end. Recently, Cardi B went on Instagram Live to reveal she was single. 

“I’ve been single for a minute now,” Cardi stated. “I don’t know if you guys have been getting clues from me, from my Lives, or from my Stories, when I put some certain music, or find my unfollowings.” This is in regards to the internet picking up on Cardi and Offset unfollowing each other.

Just a few days later, Cardi B again went on Live. But this time, she has an emotional breakdown, calling out Offset for “doing her dirty.”

With all the back and forth going on, including Offset acting like nothing happened as his birthday rolled around, it seems Quavo has finally had enough. First, Offset took to his Twitter to let fans know to keep Takeoff’s name out their mouths.

Fan wishing death on takeoff is crazy yal lil ass better chill

“Fan wishing death on takeoff is crazy yal lil ass better chill,” he writes.

Last night, rap sensation and philanthropist Quavo, through his Quavo Cares Foundation, introduced the inaugural Huncho Farms event in Atlanta, expanding on his annual turkey giveaways. This transformative initiative converted a conventional farmers market into an inclusive space for families in need, providing access to fresh produce, locally sourced ingredients, meats, dry foods, essential non-food items, and turkeys.

The event saw the distribution of an impressive 21,535 pounds of food, equivalent to $82,008 worth of meals, reaching 51 Georgia zip codes. Over 740 attendees from 300 families across Atlanta benefited from this initiative, addressing food insecurity in counties like Dekalb, Fulton, and Gwinnett.

Quavo Cares, in collaboration with Urban Recipe, took a holistic approach by offering a live cooking demonstration, access to community resources, and information on food stamps, cooking demonstrations, and community services. Participants received a Huncho Farms cookbook, featuring cooking tips and Quavo’s family recipes, and former Atlanta Hawks player Josh Smith contributed to the home goods stand.

The event showcased collaborative efforts with volunteers representing HandsOn Atlanta, Urban Recipe, Team Huncho Basketball, and Quavo Cares, emphasizing the power of community and collaboration. Quavo’s commitment to making a meaningful impact during the holiday season was evident, reflecting in his ongoing efforts to address food insecurity and uplift the Atlanta community.

Over the past two years, Quavo Cares has hosted drive-thru Thanksgiving turkey giveaways, partnering with GoPuff (2021), Walmart (2022), Feeding America, New Bethel Ministries, and the Atlanta Community Food Bank. The community giveback event concluded with a generous $150K grant from the Tender Foundation, supporting single black moms in Atlanta through the organization’s guaranteed income program.

Grammy-nominated artist and philanthropist Quavo stood alongside Community Justice on September 20th in Washington, DC, to advocate for community-driven solutions to combat gun violence. This day of advocacy aimed to raise awareness about the importance of supporting grassroots initiatives for gun violence prevention.

A day later, President Joe Biden made a significant announcement, establishing the first-ever White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention. Vice President Kamala Harris will lead this office, with Greg Jackson, outgoing Executive Director of Community Justice and partner of the Rocket Foundation, serving as Deputy Director.

This initiative is part of a broader effort championed by Community Justice, which views gun violence as a public health crisis. The organization advocates for community-based solutions, offering increased resources and a holistic approach to gun violence prevention.

Quavo’s day in Washington included a meeting with Vice President Kamala Harris and discussions with members of the Congressional Black Caucus and Congressional leadership. A panel discussion on gun violence prevention, part of the Congressional Black Caucus Annual Legislative Conference, was also led by Quavo and Greg Jackson. Throughout the day, they emphasized the importance of funding community-led initiatives, tackling gun violence as a public health risk, and advocating for the passage of the Break the Cycle Of Violence Act.

Quavo has become an influential advocate for gun violence prevention, launching The Rocket Foundation with a commitment of $2 million to invest in community violence intervention following the tragic loss of his nephew, Takeoff, a member of Migos, who was fatally shot during an altercation at a bowling alley.

Community Justice focuses on supporting Black and Brown communities disproportionately affected by gun violence. They promote a public health approach, including community-based violence intervention, coalition building, and proactive policy measures.

With the appointment of Greg Jackson to the new White House office, Community Justice will begin the search for an interim director, while Amber Goodwin and Anthony Smith assume day-to-day leadership responsibilities for the organization.

Quavo was on hand at the 52nd Annual Legislative Conference on Wednesday speaking with lawmakers on how to combat gun violence. In addition to a private meeting with Vice President Kamala Harris, Quavo also met with House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries and New Jersey Senator Corey Booker.

According to Complex, Quavo was in attendance as a respresentative of his Rocket Foundation, created in memory of Takeoff. The organization was created to “support programs which are saving lives through proven, community-based solutions to prevent gun violence.”

Joining Quavo in D.C. was his mother Edna Marshall and sister Titani Davenport who is the mother of Takeoff.

During his visit, Quavo told the Associated Press Takeoff’s death inspired his movements. “I need to step up to the plate and hit a home run. I have to do something about it, so it won’t happen to the masses—especially in our culture. I don’t want this to happen to the next person. I want to knock down these percentage.”

Quavo Huncho took the stage on the solo tip as he rolled out his debut album Minus the Migos at the Hayden Planetarium last night for well over 800 fans and executives with two separate installments of listening sessions.

Located on the upper west side of Central Park West, Quavo did not disappoint as listeners leaned back into their seats and rocked out in a ‘sky theater’ where special projectors created a simulation of the night sky on a dome ceiling. Fans and executives were able to view star-choreographed visuals where his nephew, the late “TakeOff” was able to be seen amongst the stars while Quavo performed and interacted with the audience. 

The entire album was an ode to his brother who died earlier this year. “Galaxy” and “Turn Yo Click Up” featuring Future seemed to be fan faves as all attendees looked up into a galaxy of stars, planets, and meteors in this highly interactive listening experience.

Bitter sweet, the album is fire but the absence of TakeOff and OffSet was definitely felt. “Not Done Yet” is the anthem for anyone needing a pocket of inspiration. Taking losses in life come with the territory, but it’s all about how one adjusts to the meteors thrown in one’s path.

Check out excerpts from the event below.

Quavo was handcuffed on a yacht in Miami as police investigated reports of two men threatening the boat’s captain. According to TMZ, Quavo or anyone else did not get arrested, but the video shows zip ties around the wrist of the rapper as he spoke with officers.

The call was in response to two men who were demanding a refund for the yacht experience once the captain said their rental time was coming to a close. The police report states two men threatened the captain’s life and also threatened to toss him from the boat if the trip ended.

A crew member also stated the captain had his wallet and cell phone taken, but there are contrasting reports of that happening.

Quavo’s attorney, Drew Findling, released a statement: “To be clear Quavo was NOT mentioned in the police report narrative. Not only was Quavo NOT arrested, he is not even listed as a witness to any alleged dispute. Ultimately, no one on the boat was arrested.”

The Internet put Quavo and Lori Harvey in a new romance after the two were at the San Vincente Bungalows at the same time. According to TMZ, the two just coincidentally ate at the same place at the same time and were not together.

Quavo was reportedly at The Bungalows at a completely different table and was there for a business meeting. Harvey also hit TikTok comments to reveal she was out “having lunch with my besties.”

Meanwhile, Harvey is vacationing with her actual boyfriend, Damson Idris, in Saint Tropez.

The unannounced tribute aired as the show returned from commercial, positioning Quavo and Takeoff on opposite sides of a heavenly spotlight, which took the place of Takeoff. The two supported Takeoff’s verse on “Hotel Lobby” before performing their classic anthem “Bad and Boujee.”

The moment was both important to the legacy of Takeoff but assuming to place a nail in a standing beef between the two Migos members.

BET released footage from backstage as T.I. celebrates the two and echoes a statement that all of Hip-Hop had: “Love to see it.”

You can see that moment and the full performance below.
